Didn't know that. I subscribed to Forbes about ten years ago for a year or two. Dropped the WSJ around the same time. Not enough time to read it all.

------
Media powerhouse Forbes Global Media Holdings has a new owner: 28-year-old billionaire Austin Russell. He acquired the company that publishes the famous Forbes Magazine in a deal that values it at $800 million. Forbes was owned by Hong Kong-based Integrated Whale Media, which acquired the firm from the Forbes family in 2014."

Russell got his first patent at 15. Born on March 14, 1995, in Newport Beach, California, United States, Russell's love for science started at an early age. At 11, he turned his family's garage into an optics and electrical research laboratory. Two years later, he made his first invention—a technology to recycle groundwater coming through sprinklers. Russell patented the technology when he was 15."
